The Effects of Translation Theories on the Assessment of Translations
Öz
This study has discussed the effects of translation theories on the assessment of translations. The fundamental argument which as been argued in this study was the fact that having a profound knowledge of translation theories gains more importance when assessing and criticising a translated work rather than the practice of translation. In this research the information about the history of translation has been given as well as the theories that an educator should know before he/she assesses a translated work, and how does the translation theories govern an assessment of translation has been elucidated respectively. The aim of this study is to explicate the effects of translation theories on the criticism, education and assessment of translation. The research model of this study is document analysis. Qualilative research has been carried out in this study rather than quantitative research. The fundamental finding which has been obtained in the conclusion of this study is the fact that it is absolutely mandatory for an educator who will assess a translated work to have a profound knowledge of translation theories.
